To some, "Protestant spirituality" might seem like an oxymoron. Reformation scholar Scott Hendrix contends, however, that given the extensive variety of definitions given to the word spirituality, the spiritual tradition to be found among Protestants right from the beginning of the Reformation is very rich indeed. Accordingly, Hendrix presents here, grouped into nine categories including Preaching, Living the Faith, Reconstructing the Sacraments, and Singing, a unique collection of writings representative of early Protestant spirituality.
In Hendrix's collection, itself magisterial, Luther and Calvin rub shoulders with Urbanus Rhegius and Thomas Cranmer, Zwingli and Melanchthon with Bucer and Coverdale. Even the important women Argula von Grumbach and Katharina Schütz Zell find a place here. This volume is guaranteed to be "must" reading for every teacher and student of Reformation Christianity. †
